What does Dahab Absolu smell like?
The top is built on passion fruit, bergamot, orange, grapefruit and mango, with green apple keeping it fresh. In the heart, lily of the valley, rose and jasmine add a floral layer, while honey brings sweetness early. The base of vanilla, caramel and musk stays soft and sweet, and gaiac wood, cashmere wood and moss ground it in a woody, oriental finish.
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though both ratings rest on a small number of votes. It reads as neither masculine nor feminine, balancing fresh fruit against sweet wood. Whispers of Truth by House of Sillage and Dazzling Gold by Estēe Lauder have a close profile.
